Well, yes and no on the job thing Kevin. I'm not employed by anyone but I have in my three months of unemployment formed a corporation with a couple of partners of which I'm president. Although as president I can tell you I'm not really president of much of anything just yet. I'm not making any income from this venture yet but I hope to, as I've retained the services of a law firm and in a short period of time that's cost me some cash...it's brought a whole new meaning to the word "teleconference". Plus all the other expenses entailed in starting a business so far I'm really just spending money.  But you've got to do what you've got to do and the job market sort of umm...stinks. I've been in fire safety for 12 years so I'm sort of thinking that's the way to go at this point. That or just go ahead and become a writer...which seems a bit of a poor path to choose economically speaking.   

   Oh, well...glad you enjoyed the women thing...
